CHEF JUsrlcE WRIaur, of Arizona,

CHIEF JUSTICE WRIGHT, of Arizona,
in an interview in St. Louis a few days
ago, touched upon some questions that
are of interest to the people of Wyo-
ming. The great problem to be solved by
people of Arizona, says Judge Wright,
is the water question. A number of
companies have been formed within the
past year for the purpose of boring arte.
sian wells on a large scale. A still more
important movement in the direction of
building great reservoirs for irrigating
purposes has been set on foot within the
past few months, and is backed with
ample capital to give the scheme a full
and fair trial. The idea is to build dams
across certain water courses, and keep the
water that falls in July and August for
the irrigating season. If necessary these
reservoirs will be rooted over to protect
them from the sun and all who have ex-
amined the matter express the utmost
faith in the success of the plan.
THE Arizona Canal company" the
Judge continued, commenced work on
the Verdi river, s%eventy-ive miles iva
and diverted the entire stream to the Salt
river valley. The canal was completed
two years ago, and worked a complete
change in that district A sandy plain,
400. 900 acres in extent, was changed
into the most fertile region | ever saw.
Splendid wheat is raised, at least five
crops Of alfalfa hay are cut annually, an
orange grove has been started, a large
number of fig trees have been planted
and are now producing magnificent fruit,
and they are growing a better raisin
than even Los Angeles can show. The
land is worth from $40 to 5000 per acre,
and fthe aprojecters of the canal have
made fortunes. From a mere hamlet
Phoenix has grown to be a city of 5000

Professor Ruhle, of Bonn, in a recent
paper ON consumption of the lungs, states
that in his opinion the most frequent man
ner of contracting this malady is from a
diseased person through the sputa, also
through the glands, calculations from the
skin, or any way in which the poison may
appear on the surface and be transported
by means of pocket handkerchiefs, wash
ing, etc. The fact that the attendants in
hospitals who ave the care of consump-
tives are seldom attacked with the disease,
conviced the writer that it is not the air
through which the germs are carried, but
it is communicated in another mode, in
fact, the way in which the members of
the family kiss nj fondle the patient and
handle his linen. From one member of
the family the special germ which excites
the disease goes to another. Instances
can frequently be found, on inquiry, where
the parents transmit the disease to their
children; in such cases the family physi.
clan should put in his word of warning

COLORADO mining circles are greatly
excited over the finding of a IS, 900 gold
nugget near Breckenridge. The Repub-
hcdn says the nugget was found at a
depth of many feet from the surface, and
weighs exactly l56 ounces and FIVE penny,
weights. There is a little lead in it and
some quartz, but as a specimen it could
likely be sold for close on to S., 0 1t
is said to be the largest lump of gold
ever found in Colorado, but one almost if
not quite as large was taken from the
Little Annie mine in Summit district,
Rio Grande county, late in 1876. To
Australia belongs the honor Of having
produced the largest nugget of gold ever
discovered. 1t weighed l36 pounds, and
was found at Ballaratt, near Geelong.

THE post Office department will in a
few days announce another list of cities in
which the free delivery system is to be
inaugurated, and it is probable that Chey-
emit will be included in it. Congress at
its last session passed a law providing that
where the population of a city is 10000 or
more, or where the receipts of the office
are 10000 a year or more, the post
master general may establish a free deliv-
cry service in that place. So there has
been u race ever since the close of the
last session to get under this act. All the
cities that had n population Of 10000
under the last census put in their applica-
tons early, and were in the list of ninety
FIVE to which the service is Just now being
extended. Now a new list is being pre-
pared of those below 20, 900 in population
whose receipts are $4,000 or more. This
last will bring up the total of the new
offices to about 100. and will make the
total number of free delivery offices about
an even 300.

GRANT for age and the delicate can be
found than Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
Il seasonable medicine in those ailments
OF commonest occurrence-liver COM
plant, Indigestion and bowel DISORDERS
pure botanic safeguard against malaria
and a reliable means of countcracting
rheumatism. To the convalescent it is a
valuable aid in the recovery OF strength,
and to the debilitated, nervous invalid it
yields tranquil slumber and renewed
appetite-two prime factors in the restor-
alton Of vigor. Being of pure botanical
origin, it is free from those objections
urged against mineral remedies difficult or
impossible of assimilation by the system,
and which impair the toue OF the stomach,
which the Bitters, on the contrary,
strengthens and regulates. 1t is endorsed

The prettiest trick l ever saw, says a
London Standard writer, was done by
Hermann while at lunch with a brother
conjurer in the hotel at Monteyideo.
Five people were seated at the table mot
his own, be it observed), and there was
apparently an entire absence of any
possible preparation. Taking a pear
from the dish he told us to mark it.
One left four punctures from his fork in
it, another dropped a spot of ink on the
rind; l pushed an American three cent
piece into the soft substance of the fruit
until it was buried; next n large slice
was cut out and eaten. Hermann then
took it and tossed it toward the lofty
ceiling. Catch it yourselves, he cried,
as the pear was whirling in mid air. 1t
fell into my outstretched hand, prong
marked, ink spotted and with the three
cent bit still bedded in its tissue, but
whole. New York Tribune.

CONTAGIOUS intoxication is the rather
peculiar theme upon which a London
newspaper recently dilates. How intoxi-
cation may become contagious through
the medium of the flowing bowl is a mat
ter which will no doubt recall vivid recol-
~lections to many people, but that a man
of peculiar nervous organization may be.
come paralyzed through the drinking of
his associates without touching a drop of
liquor himself, is a unique statement
which some of our readers may find very
serviceable in cutting, short do
nestle recriminations. One case men
toned blythe London paper is that of a re-
formed man, of twelve years sobriety, who
vent on a military excursion with a drink
ing company, and although he drank
nothing but lemonade, became as much
intoxicated as the others. The event was
the subject of much comment and loss to
him, socially and otherwise, although he
protested and others confirmed his state
ments, that he did not take any spirits at
this time. In these cases two conditions
were present-one in which some special
unknown nerve state was inherited. which
really reflected alcoholic states from con-
tagion; the other, in which this particular
alcoholic state had been acquired, and
more rapidly responded to contagious
surroundings than otherwise.
Thus actors who essay to represent in.
sanity or inebriety, says the same author
ity, are successful in proportion as they
inherit a nervous organization predispos-
ing them to these affections. A single
glass of spirits may awaken a latent nerve
defect and soon after merge into inebri-
ETY.. So the effort to initiate the manner
and conduct of an intoxicated person may
give impress and direction to an organism
that will be permanent. An actor, greatly
praised for his skill as Hamlet, was
obliged to leave the stage for the reason
that this character was becoming so init
mately his as to suggest insanity at an
early day. A man who acted the part of
a drunken man was, after a time, so com
pletely intoxicated as to be unfit for his
part. He could not use spirits and had
to give up his part in the play for the
same reason as mentioned above. Many
OF these states may be termed emotional
trance states, and in some future time will
be the subject of some curious and won
derful psychological discoveries.
